Abstract (en)

A method for isolating a nucleic acid from a cell-containing sample by using a magnet with a removable cover attached thereto and a plurality of containers arranged on a table, the plurality of containers having (1) a first container for mixing a cell-containing sample and magnetic beads to which cells can be adhered, (2) a cleaning tank for cleaning the magnetic beads with cells adhering thereto, and (3) a second container for heating the cleaned magnetic beads, the method includes: mixing a liquid including cell-containing sample and magnetic beads in the cell-containing sample in the first container so as to adhere cells in the cell-containing sample to magnetic beads; taking out the magnetic beads from the first container and cleaning the magnetic beads; and suspending the magnetic beads in a re-suspension buffer in the second container and heating the second container at 80 to 120 °C for 20 to 300.
